Steve Earle joins us from a Nashville studio this week to talk about his brand new album “Ghosts Of West Virginia.” The songs were started for a stage production titled called “Coal Country,” in which Steve also appeared, until its New York run ended with the pandemic. The album highlights the struggles and stories of West Virginia’s miners in the wake of the 2010 Upper Big Branch mining disaster.
